There is a reason I never have and never will own a Nvidia chipset. That is just bull, I'm sorry.

Nvidia chipsets have been a nightmare for a minority of their users, and still continue to be with 780i.

My DFI nF4 was rock solid. But those days are long gone it seems.

What pisses me off is the £175 I paid NOT to have these kind of problems.

The cheapest boards often have the least problems because they are simpler. Same goes for cars.

I contacted Enermax UK about how they tested it. They said they used their testing equipment but not an actual 8800GT.

They claim they have no reason to test it with an 8800GT (which sounds suspicious to me).
Antway, since the Striker came up with the infamous CPU INIT error, the blame has shifted to the motherboard for the time being.
I have done an RMA and once I get a replacement back we'll see if the Galaxy DXX was to blame or not.

I got the MSI P7N Platinum, plugged it all in and the card works.

So it would seem that it was the bad Striker that caused the problem, not the Galaxy DXX.

(P.S. I now have to return the XpertVision 8800GT as it operates with the fas permanently stuck at 100% as it would appears it has no thermal sensors!!!)
